With more than 2 billion active users worldwide, WhatsApp is the most popular instant messaging application globally. One of the main reasons for its success is the continuous launch of new functions in WhatsApp that improve the user experience.
If we stop to think about what the app was like a few years ago and what it is like now, it has absolutely nothing to do with it. Well, as reported by Mark Zuckerberg, and the executive director of WhatsApp, Will Cathcart, in the coming months there will be some news that will make life easier for all of us .
Multi-device function
This is one of the great requests of WhatsApp users, and it is finally going to come true. The company itself has confirmed that it is working on this feature, which will allow the account to be used on up to four different devices , including the main mobile phone. Of course, all messages will maintain end-to-end encryption, so that only the sender and the recipient can read them.
Temporary messages
WhatsApp is working on temporary messages in all chats at the same time . At this time, beta users can activate the function that allows messages from a specific chat to disappear automatically after seven days. In the not too distant future they will be able to do it not only in a specific chat, but in all of them at the same time.
See once
And finally, the one-time view of multimedia files, photos and videos . What does this mean? When a user receives content of this type and opens it, once it comes out, it will automatically disappear. However, everything indicates that WhatsApp will allow you to take screenshots, something that many users have not liked.
Holiday mode
Right now the only option to hide a conversation from the WhatsApp chats tab is to archive it. However, if the person in question sends a message, the chat goes out again. With vacation mode this will no longer happen. The chat will remain archived until the account owner wants it.
These are the new WhatsApp features that will arrive in the coming months, throughout 2021. All have been requested repeatedly by users around the world, and the company is working on them.
